First off, I commend you for sticking to your ethical principles. I know a lot of people in your situation who would have folded and done what the company asked them to do.
I'm curious, how will you present this situation to prospective employers in the future? Will you mention that you left because you refused to do something unethical or will you skirt the subject? I'm trying to think what the best course of action would be.
Be honest about it is my advice. If the person does not want to hire you because you are not willing to compromise your personal integrity you will probably not want to work there anyway.
